WHITE Tigers’ boss, Leigh Robinson, has admitted that he had ‘mixed feelings’ after Saturday’s 3-2 loss at Dulwich Hamlet, a game which saw us come back from two goals down to draw level only to end with just nine men on the field.
“There were mixed feelings after the game at Dulwich,” he said. “On the positive side, we showed some unbelievable fight to come back from 2-0 down with ten men, then nine men, but with so few players on the pitch there are gaps everywhere so it was hard to see the game out and ultimately our hosts nicked a late winner.
“Undoubtedly the red cards cost us in the end and this added to the players that were missing through injury, suspension and illness made it a difficult day albeit not disastrous as results around us went relatively well.
“Our focus now is on getting some injured players available again for this week. Jordan Copp is back from suspension; we are hoping Southampton will give Ben Rowthorn the green light to play after glandular fever and we’re also hopeful that River Allen and Tyler Harvey will be fit enough to return to the squad at least.
“We will return to home soil on Saturday determined to return to winning ways and add to our points tally.”
